The Last Stand examines the urgent race to save the world's last remaining ancient forests and stop global warming. This emotive documentary, using the flashpoint of British Columbia's "Battle for the Trees" at Fairy Creek, examines the importance of keeping intact forest ecosystems: in North America, the Amazon and around the world.

Narrated by esteemed actor and environmental advocate Peter Coyote, forest defenders, frontline protestors and experts speak about the impact trees and plants have on our atmosphere, including carbon sequestration and providing oxygen for us to breathe.
